Proverbs 26
1 As snow in summer, and rain in harvest, so glory is not seemly for a fool.
Niebe iti panawen ti tikag wenno tudo iti panawen iti panagapit ti pakaiyarigan ti maag a saan a maikari a mapadayawan.
2 As a bird flying to other places, and a sparrow going here or there: so a curse uttered without cause shall come upon a man.
Ti panagakar-akar ti billit tuleng ken ti napartak a panagtayab ti sallapingaw ti pakaiyarigan ti lunod a saan a maikari nga agdissuor.
3 A whip for a horse, and a snaffle for an ass, and a rod for the back of fools.
Ti baut ket para iti kabalio, ti busal ket para iti asno ken ti kayo a pagbaut ket para kadagiti maag.
4 Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou be made like him.
Saanmo a sungsungbatan ken danggayan ti maag iti kinamaagna, ta no aramidem dayta ket agbalinka a kas kenkuana.
5 Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he imagine himself to be wise.
Sungbatam iti minamaag ti tao a maag ken danggayam iti kinamaagna tapno saan isuna nga agbalin a nasirib iti bukodna a panagkita.
6 He that sendeth words by a foolish messenger, is lame of feet and drinketh iniquity.
Ti siasinoman a mangipatulod iti mensahe iti maysa a maag ket arigna a putputdenna ti sakana ken in-inumenna ti pakadangranna.
7 As a lame man hath fair legs in vain: so a parable is unseemly in the mouth of fools.
Dagiti agbitbitin a saka ti maysa a paralitiko ket maiyarig iti maysa a proverbio iti ngiwat dagiti maag.
8 As he that casteth a stone into the heap of Mercury: so is he that giveth honour to a fool.
Ti panangigalut iti bato iti maysa a palsiit ket kapada ti panangpadayaw iti maysa a maag.
9 As if a thorn should grow in the hand of a drunkard: so is a parable in the mouth of fools.
Ti sisiit nga igi-iggem ti maysa a nabartek ket kasla proverbio iti ngiwat dagiti maag.
10 Judgment determineth causes: and he that putteth a fool to silence, appeaseth anger.
Ti pumapana a mangsugsugat iti uray siasinoman ket kasla tay tao a mangtangtangdan iti maag wenno uray siasinoman a lumabas.
11 As a dog that returneth to his vomit, so is the fool that repeateth his folly.
Aso a mangdildilpat iti sarwana ti pakaiyarigan ti maysa a maag a mangulit-ulit iti minamaag nga aramidna.
12 Hast thou seen a man wise in his own conceit? there shall be more hope of a fool than of him.
Adda kadi makitkitam a nasirib iti bukodna a panagkita? Adda ad-adu a namnama para iti maysa a maag ngem iti kas kenkuana.
13 The slothful man saith: There is a lion in the way, and a lioness in the roads.
Ibagbaga ti sadut a tao nga, “Adda leon iti dalan! Adda leon kadagiti plasa!”
14 As the door turneth upon its hinges, so doth the slothful upon his bed.
Ti panagpusipos ti ridaw iti bisagrana ti pakaiyarigan ti panagbalibalikid ti nasadut a tao iti pagid-iddaanna.
15 The slothful hideth his hand under his armpit, and it grieveth him to turn it to his mouth.
Ti sadut a tao ket ikabilna ti imana iti pinggan, ngem saanna man laeng a maingato daytoy nga isubo iti ngiwatna.
16 The sluggard is wiser in his own conceit, than seven men that speak sentences.
Iti panagkita ti maysa a sadut a tao ket nasirsirib isuna ngem iti pito a lallaki nga addaan iti kinatimbeng.
17 As he that taketh a dog by the ears, so is he that passeth by in anger, and meddleth with another man’s quarrel.
Ti tao a lumabas a makaunget iti panagsisinnupiat a saanna met a pakaseknan ket kasla tay tao a mangtengngel kadagiti lapayag ti maysa nga aso.
18 As he is guilty that shooteth arrows, and lances unto death:
Agmauyong a tao a mangibibiat iti umap-apuy a pana
19 So is the man that hurteth his friend deceitfully: and when he is taken, saith: I did it in jest.
ti kaiyarigan ti tao a mangal-allilaw iti karrubana sana kuna, “Agang-angawak laeng!”
20 When the wood faileth, the fire shall go out: and when the talebearer is taken away, contentions shall cease.
Ta no awan ti kayo, maiddep ti apuy, ken no awan ti manangperdi iti padana a tao, agsardeng ti panagaapa.
21 As coals are to burning coals, and wood to fire, so an angry man stirreth up strife.
Uging a bumegbeggang ken kayo nga agapuy ti kaiyarigan ti mannakiapa a tao a mangpakaro iti panagririri.
22 The words of a talebearer are as it were simple, but they reach to the innermost parts of the belly.
Dagiti sasao a pammadpadakes ket maiyarig iti sangkasakmol a naimas a makan; umunegda iti kaunggan a paset ti bagi.
23 Swelling lips joined with a corrupt heart, are like an earthen vessel adorned with silver dross.
Ti pirak a naikalupkop iti banga ket kasla umap-apuy a bibig ken dakes a panagpuspuso.
24 An enemy is known by his lips, when in his heart he entertaineth deceit.
Ti siasinoman a gumurgura iti dadduma ket kalkalubanna ti riknana babaen kadagiti ibagbagana, ken ur-urnongenna ti kinaulbodna iti kaungganna.
25 When he shall speak low, trust him not: because there are seven mischiefs in his heart.
Agsao isuna iti nasayaat, ngem saanmo a patpatien isuna, ta adda pito a makarimon iti pusona.
26 He that covereth hatred deceitfully, his malice shall be laid open in the public assembly.
Uray no ti gurana ket nakaluban iti panangallilaw, maammoanto ti sangkagimongan ti kinadangkesna.
27 He that diggeth a pit, shall fall into it: and he that rolleth a stone, it shall return to him.
Ti siasinoman a mangkali iti abut ket matnag iti daytoy, ken agtulid nga agsubli ti bato iti siasinoman a nangiduron iti daytoy.
28 A deceitful tongue loveth not truth: and a slippery mouth worketh ruin.
Kagurgura ti ulbod a dila dagiti tattao nga irurrurumenna, ken mangipapaay iti pannakadadael ti manangpatiray-ok a ngiwat.
